Synology DiskStation DS1817+ 2GB

NAS with professional features will satisfy the demands of productivity and efficiency in small as well as mid-sized companies. At the same time, it is only a fraction of the price of large servers. For NAS, you do not issue such funds for acquisition, operation and software. From Synology you get everything at once and with light as well as easy management. However, if your classic scalable server still attracts you, this device can be extended with a 10x DX517 drive or you can mount a dual-slot M.2 for the SSD cache or a 10GB Ethernet network card into the PCIe. Therefore, it will also comply with the growth of data services.

Data protection and integrity with Btrfs

The new generation Btrfs file system has tools that prevent data corruption. Btrfs on the volume holds two copies of metadata, allowing you to recover data in the event of hard drive corruption or the occurrence of bad sectors . For a common file volume, work tool errors are detected. However, Btrfs creates checksums for each read operation, so the error is detected immediately and auto-correction occurs. Snapshot features let you create a copy of the entire shared folder. This way, in the event of database loss or corruption, you can quickly recover data back to the moment the image was taken as a result of a human factor failure.

Services on the palm of your hand

NAS has a sleek DiskStation Manager (DSM) browser operating system. With an easy-to-read environment, you can manage all your service settings, and even add it to different packages to customise it for your needs. To protect important data and other assets, DSM offers new management and security tools, so Synology NAS can serve as a network strategy centre. With Snapshot Replication, DSM offers almost continuous data protection to enterprises and multi-site replication for more comprehensive protection. In addition, Synology Hyper Backup can now back up multiple versions to all types of destination

Data from all sides

Is it important for you to have your files still at hand no matter what device you use? With Cloud Station, synchronising files between different devices and creating your own private cloud is easier than ever before. Business security is covered by two-step authentication, group authorisation (local and VPN), and encryption. If you are worried about unwanted deletions or file changes, they can also save up to 32 old versions of each file. In addition, Cloud Sync offers more accurate synchronisation management and file backup from your Synology NAS to an external cloud-based host.
